Hippocampal place cells code spatial trajectories differently depending on whether slow or fast gamma rhythms are present. Relatively long paths, extending ahead of an animal’s current location, are coded in a time-compressed manner during slow gamma, whereas spatial representations more closely track an animal’s current position during fast gamma.
